After watching the movies and reading some of the books, a topic that i have wondered myself is, should Frodo have been the one to carry the ring?

Mostly after watching the movie TTT, it seems that Frodo would never have made it to Mordor without Sam. This raises the option that maybe Sam should have been the one to carry it. Then again, Frodo is very weakened from the ring.

Id like everyone to give their opionion on this topic and name any other characters that you felt may have been worthy of carrying the ring.
